I had heard they had a major fire at their production facility - any truth to that?

Yes, they did. Lost the factory and the inventory. They should be back up and running towards middle of this summer.

Hopefully, Hitena will be back up and running soon. If not, anyone know where I can get a spool of Zebra #610 Black/Orchid Size D?
